Chapter 243: Opening the Meridians

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

There were at least a hundred thatched sheds on the ground like mushrooms. Under the thatched shed was a huge furnace, and there were many iron ores scattered beside the furnace.

Chu Qingzhi said, “Are these the furnaces for the initial calcination of iron ore?”

Tang Jinghong nodded. “It’s calcined here, then transported to the village to be forged into a weapon.”

“Got it.” Chu Qingzhi spread out her divine sense and checked the area bit by bit. Then, she saw a cave on a mountain on the left.

She pulled Tang Jinghong towards the cave.

The two of them stood at the entrance of the cave and looked around. They didn’t see any danger and walked in.

Entering the cave, the two of them saw two passageways on the left and right. The left was very messy. The ground was covered in iron ore. The right passageway was relatively clean.

Tang Jinghong pulled Chu Qingzhi to the left. “Qingzhi, be careful. Don’t trip over and sprain your ankle.”

Chu Qingzhi nodded.

The passageway was especially dark. There was no light at all. Chu Qingzhi and Tang Jinghong could not even see each other.

Tang Jinghong took out the matchstick. Coincidentally, there was a torch on the wall. He lit it and walked forward with it.

The passageway was circular and uneven. It was not high, so they could only walk with their backs hunched. After walking for a while, the two of them walked out of the cave and arrived at a huge col.

In the col, the ground was filled with iron ore. There were many carts, shovels, and hammers. It was the place where iron ore was being mined.

Chu Qingzhi looked around and said, “Jinghong, this huge place has been mined for at least half a year.” contemporary romance

If it weren’t for the fact that they were on different sides, Tang Jinghong would have praised the Lord of the Northern Border for his ability. “After mining so many ores, 1 wonder how many sabers and swords they have forged…”

The two of them left the col and returned to the cave, entering the passageway on the right.

Lowering their body, they walked along the passageway and arrived at a hollowed out place inside the mountain.

This was a huge oval space. All the iron ore had been taken away. This place would probably collapse with a small earthquake.

Speaking of the devil…

Suddenly, there was a strange movement beneath their feet.

A rock fell from above, and a crack appeared in the mountain wall.

Tang Jinghong’s expression changed. His first reaction was to push Chu Qingzhi towards the passageway. “Qingzhi, run. The mountain is about to collapse.”

As he spoke, rocks fell from above, and the signs of the mountain collapsing became more and more obvious.

Suddenly, a stone the size of a basin hit his back. The pain instantly spread throughout his body, and the veins on his forehead bulged…

Chu Qingzhi reached out and grabbed Tang Jinghong’s hand. She wrapped the two of them with her spiritual power and quickly flew out of the mountain.

Rumble…

As soon as Chu Qingzhi and Tang Jinghong ran out, the mountain behind them collapsed, causing dust to billow.

… A mountain disappeared.

Chu Qingzhi felt Tang Jinghong’s body tense up and her heart sank. “Jinghong, were you hit by a rock?”

Tang Jinghong’s handsome face was abnormally pale. He gritted his teeth and endured the pain. “It’s alright. Let’s leave this place quickly.”

With such a huge commotion, those who were sleeping soundly were frightened awake and immediately came out to check the situation. When they saw that the mountain had collapsed, they could not help but gasp. If they were working over there at the moment, it would be their grave.

Fortunately, it was night time.

Chu Qingzhi helped Tang Jinghong up and flew out of the valley.

Chu Qingzhi helped Tang Jinghong lean against a big rock. “Jinghong, let me look at your back.”

Tang Jinghong’s reaction was a little slow because of the pain he was suffering from. Before he could react, Chu Qingzhi had already taken off his clothes.

His back was bruised, and his flesh was badly mutilated. In the deepest part, one could even see his bones…

Chu Qingzhi looked at Tang Jinghong’s back and her heart ached. “Are you stupid? Even if you didn’t push me, I could have dodged it.”

As she spoke, she injected her spiritual power into Tang Jinghong’s body and focused it on the most seriously injured part.

Fortunately, she was not an ordinary person. Otherwise, she did not know when Jinghong’s injury would recover. If he did not receive treatment, his wound would fester and he might die!

Tang Jinghong felt that his body was enveloped by warmth. It was especially comfortable, as if he was soaking in a hot spring. “Qingzhi, I know you don’t need my protection, but I want to protect you.”

Chu Qingzhi couldn’t help but be moved.

She turned around and sat beside Tang Jinghong in the opposite direction. “Lean on me and sleep for a while.”

It would take some time for him to recover from such a serious injury.

Tang Jinghong smiled and wrapped his arms around Chu Qingzhi’s waist. He leaned his head on her shoulder. “Qingzhi, 1 feel especially safe with you around.”

Chu Qingzhi kissed Tang Jinghong’s face. “Don’t talk. Rest.”

Tang Jinghong felt sweet. His heart throbbed. Qingzhi was so much younger than him, but every time they were together, he felt that he was the one being taken care of.

The first ray of light broke the horizon and gradually dyed the surrounding clouds red.

Chu Qingzhi injected 50% of her spiritual power into Tang Jinghong’s body to help him recover.

Many meridians in the body of mortals were blocked. Most of the spiritual power would be wasted when it entered their bodies. Only a small portion could be used.

Tang Jinghong suddenly opened his eyes. He was still leaning against Chu Qingzhi. “Qingzhi.”

“Does your body still hurt?” Chu Qingzhi’s voice was especially pleasant to the ears, like the chirp of an oriole. In this forest, it was even more ethereal and crisp.

“Thank you, Qingzhi. It doesn’t hurt anymore.” Tang Jinghong sat up straight and suddenly said in surprise, “Qingzhi, I realized that many of my meridians have been opened.”

As the spiritual power flowed through Jinghong’s body, it coincidentally helped him open his meridians. This was a serendipity Chu Qingzhi didn’t expect to happen.

“I’ll try to see if my internal strength has increased.”

“Go ahead and try.” Chu Qingzhi looked at Tang Jinghong quietly, her eyes tracing his facial features…

His eyebrows were deep and thick like two sharp swords, not messy at all. They looked just right.

His nose bridge was high and straight, and his face looked very chiseled. No matter which direction one looked at him, they would find him handsome.

His lips were thin and slightly pursed. They were red and looked especially sexy under the dim light..
